Flicker flacker. Flicker flash.


When I go over to my sister's for supper or vice versa, inevitably the laptop gets pulled out and the latest and greatest YouTube videos get shown to much laughter and repeated viewings, e.g., "Charlie bit me!"
I don't usually visit Flickr by itself, usually I'm taken there by a link on someone's site to see their photos or work.
When I went to look at other people's photo streams, I felt like I was spying into their world. I could see vacation photos, intimate moments (nothing salacious thankfully!), and way too much stuff that I simply would not care to know, nor post myself (although I'm now rethinking some of my Facebook albums...). I found the groups feature helpful and when I finally figured out how to scroll through the pictures in the right order (frustrating!) I got to see some cool ways of harvesting vermicomposting -- with added captions that pointed out specifics. All in all, I don't think I'd visit this site just to muck about. It was too unweildy for my tastes.
